I'm afraid I don't understand what shabby treatment you are referring to. MLB had Mr. Drake shut down his website for reasons that didn't revolve around this forum.

You may have been referring to the post in which fitump56 came across pretty strongly towards Mr. Drake. I personally did not understand the reason for the outburst, but it may have been that fitump thought Mr. Drake was referring to himself and InterestedUmp when he told the forum body to stop acting like children. I think fitump's post was the result of paranoia on his part, but who can blame him? He's been called every name under the sun since he came here and is often the victim of insults and cheap shots.

I do not have any other answers as to what constitutes this "shabby treatment", because other than the one incident described above I haven't observed any acts of aggression towards him.

These MiLB umps kept asking about trying those damn Mizuno and Nike masks that I can't afford. I suggested that they contact Rob here or on his website. I didn't think of the harm it may have done. My apologies.
